Maybe they were just too small to get over the guard rail?

Tamiflu:

TOKYO, March 24 Japan is looking into the possibility that the anti-flu drug Tamiflu may be causing hallucinations and other neuropsychiatric symptoms in young children.

A health ministry affiliate has received nearly two dozen reports of the antiviral drug, made by Swiss-based Roche Holding, being associated with neuropsychiatric disorders in children under the age of 10, the Kyodo news agency reported Saturday.

However, none of the cases in 2004 and 2005 resulted in the children falling or jumping from buildings, as had been previously reported in 15 cases of older youths, ages 10-19, and seven cases of adults who allegedly had taken Tamiflu, Kyodo said.
